Saint Anthony in art : and other sketches
A devotional art survey by Mary F. Nixon-Roulet, published in Boston by Marlier & Co. in 1901 for Catholic readers interested in how saints were painted. Halftone reproductions of Old Master canvases show angels descending on clouds, kneeling Annunciations, guardian angels leading children, and crowded almsgiving scenes, all with soft tonal grain and deep shadow useful for arched vignettes and figure silhouettes.
